Any one know where there is ONE ? i wrecked one of mine and have been looking on ebay, all the ones available are the copies and i want a real m-tech one to suit the rest one the car. Its going on an E39 2001 530i sport so it needs to be the right one (apparently the hub sizes vary around these years? 70-71mm ???
Any help would be appreciated guys




These ones, the back ones are wider than the fronts and i need a front.

Was thinking about it but i was going to try and get a used one as i thought the new one might stick out! Either that or try my best to bring the others right up to scratch!!!

I had those fitted to my old 34 525i.

I hot a pothole & buckled one.

Ended up buying a set of reps for Ł360 from Fleabay as the cheapest
set i could find where Ł750 for 4 & they wouldnt split.

I was quoted Ł1700 for a genuine set from BMW.

sorry ignore that, ive been told 7 wheels will not fit on a 5, but some work the other way round (5 wheels on a 7) with some adjustment (using spigot rings)

7 Series rims fit fine on 5's bud (an 18'' wheel is an 18'' wheel at the end of the day).

Just make sure the tyre size & profile is correct.

My wheel came with spigot rings & i had to use 40 profile tyres instead
of the 50 profile for the 7 to prevent scrubbing.

Heres an old pic of my Ł300 Ebay 525i Se with Ł80 750i wheels

I need to buy an M5 rather soon - I miss my old E39

Those are fronts on the back though if that makes a differance to the fitment statement ?

WD Pro

My 7 has a full size front as a spare so there must be a few knocking around - or people willing to swap a mint one for a tatty one and some cash ?

snoop69

You could be right as my wheels were all the same width.

Mine was also lowered so i had to change the profile.

A stock height 5 series should have no problems with a wider rear
with the correct profile tyre.

WD Pro

I might as well ask - if anyone has a minty OE 18" rear going spare - PM me

Have a spare original in the workshop, im sure its an 18" but cant remember tyre size, if you pm me the exact ref numbers at the back of the wheel, I will compare it for you.
